pap-ri-kash.  paprikash.

INGREDIENTS 

• 1 (2 to 3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces (I used all thighs shredded)
• 1 bell pepper diced
• 3 diced garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 tbls cayenne pepper
• 1/4 cup hot and sweet hungarian paprika
• 1 cup white wine
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1/2-1 cup sour cream (I used soy, came out great!)

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large skillet, heat olive oil and brown chicken on all sides. Season chicken with salt, paprika, cayenne pepper and pepper. Remove chicken and set aside.
2. Add onion, garlic and bell pepper to skillet. Cook just until tender, but not brown. Stir in most of paprika. Return chicken to skillet, turning to coat with paprika/onion mixture. Add wine and broth. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover and simmer for 40 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked and tender. (I cooked it in the oven at 300 for like 2 hours) Remove chicken and keep warm.
3. Boil skillet drippings until reduced to 1/2 cup liquid, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup sour cream. Heat through. Serve chicken atop spaetzle (Hungarian egg noodles) or dumplings.
